Profile

Very Professional and dedictated to my work. My everyday priorities are

always to perform my duties the best I can, to exceed my guests needs and

expectations by creating and mixing unforgettable cocktails, or simply by

suggesting them good wine pairing to go along with their food and to see

them smile and be happy. Always try to anticipate either guests needs or

coworkers help or simply things to accomplish within the day. I have

good knowledge of hospitality business and also in supervising. I get

respected a lot by treating everybody equally.
